| Contribute a Bequest Bequests are the most common and simplest form of planned gift that Howard has been fortunate to receive. A bequest is a gift - large or small - that is made through a donor's will. Individuals may include Howard University in their wills by naming Howard for a specific dollar amount (called a "legacy"), a specific asset, or a percent share of their estate. Donors can also name Howard as the residual beneficiary of their estates after the payment of bequests to others. Donors do not owe any federal estate tax on the amount of the bequest. Many states allow full inheritance tax deductions as well. For more information on making a bequest gift to Howard, please contact the Office of Planned Giving toll free at (877) 860-GIFT (877-860-4438) or (202) 238-2340. |
